just reach out over the distance and let him know you re there
Just reach out over the distance and let him know you re there, etched in marble stone Veteran, do you sing for the man who stands alone
But the veteran fights again at night and struggles through the day, but the veteran fights again at night and struggles through the day, when you sing do you sing for the man who s broken
he learned his lessons early
he came back an addict
when you sing do you sing for the man who s broken
do you sing for the man who stands alone
Do you sing for the endless list of names, you hold it back and talk of anything but the war, you hold it back and talk of anything but the war
Like looking into a mirror and reading a different name, so what do you say to the veteran who can t take it any more, or pieces in a trunk
he was left with nothing when the glory began to fade
Just reach out over the distance and let him know you re there, i saw the echo of a thousand wars in the face of the man, do you sing for the man who stands alone
Do you sing for the endless list of names, a confirmation under fire
we can turn the other way
Etched in marble stone, etched in marble stone, etched in marble stone
he learned his lessons early
A confirmation under fire, we are lucky in our fortune, he was left with nothing when the glory began to fade
do you sing for the endless list of names
Do you sing for the man who stands alone, do you sing for the endless list of names, a confirmation under fire
When you sing do you sing for the man who s broken, etched in marble stone Allan, a confirmation under fire
Or forgotten how to care, etched in marble stone
Through the day, sometimes he would see a face but then each face looks the same, now his eyes stare into the distance like a prisoner behind the wire
now his eyes stare into the distance like a prisoner behind the wire
Now his eyes stare into the distance like a prisoner behind the wire, through the day Allan, do you sing for the man who stands alone
through the day
He came back a hero to a waving flag parade, etched in marble stone
he came back an addict
We are lucky in our fortune, we can turn the other way
do you sing for the endless list of names
He came back a drunk, began to fade, but the veteran fights again at night and struggles through the day
now his eyes stare into the distance like a prisoner behind the wire
etched in marble stone
when you sing do you sing for the man who s broken
Do you sing for the endless list of names, do you sing for the man who stands alone
Began to fade, etched in marble stone
When you sing do you sing for the man who s broken, he came back a hero to a waving flag parade, different name
He learned his lessons early, he came back a drunk
Or forgotten how to care, like looking into a mirror and reading a different name Allan, but the veteran fights again at night and struggles through the day
He came back a hero to a waving flag parade, we are lucky in our fortune Veteran, do you sing for the man who stands alone
As he looked out over the watching crowd searching for a friend, we are lucky in our fortune
Now his eyes stare into the distance like a prisoner behind the wire, or forgotten how to care Veteran, do you sing for the man who stands alone
Do you sing for the man who stands alone, he was left with nothing when the glory began to fade, now his eyes stare into the distance like a prisoner behind the wire
